Correct though I thought this one might be a bit more difficult than my previous ones.

Guinevere · 09-13-2005, 02:52 PM

Well, mariners are not found in so many places... Besides, I am very fond of UT!

The love of Arda was set in your hearts by Ilúvatar, and he does not plant to no purpose. Nonetheless, many ages of Men unborn may pass ere that purpose is made known; and to you it will be revealed and not to the Valar.
